1. Will using a compatible filter void my warranty?
Using compatible filters typically does not void your warranty, but it’s always best to check the specific terms outlined by the manufacturer. Many users have successfully used compatible filters without any issues.
2. How long does the filter last?
The lifespan of the filter can vary depending on usage and air quality, but on average, a good quality HEPA filter should last around 6-12 months. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning the pre-filter, can help extend its life.
